A romantic mix of single to double flowers, many banded with contrasting colors. The silky sheen of these cup-shaped flowers, glowing in the early summer sunshine, makes this selection irresistible. Plant when the weather is still cool.

I’m so excited about this new strain of double Papaver rhoeas! This new selection features Valentine bicolors & picotees of red, scarlet-orange, rose, pink & peach. Totally girly & totally romantic, these double & semi-double blooms keep coming for a month or two (especially if dead-headed) & self-sow for a repeat performance every Spring! Can you imagine your front yard filled with these lovely poppies? To 30” tall & 18” across. Poppy Fans - As cool season growers, Papavers should be planted only when extreme heat or extreme cold is not anticipated.
